I encountered the same issue today and updated Firebase to 15.0.2 (I had firebase-messaging only in my project) and it worked fine. Since you're using more Firebase services update all your dependencies to the latest versions. Good luck.

What worked for me is i reversed the play services and fire base versions to 11.8.0 and it is working fine now.
